Alors que l’ordre mondial bascule vers un système multipolaire, l’Afrique se trouve face à un tournant décisif. Comment éviter la marginalisation et tirer parti de ses atouts stratégiques ?

Cet épisode met en lumière les stratégies politiques et diplomatiques qui permettraient à l’Afrique de renforcer sa voix dans les grandes négociations internationales, qu’il s’agisse de climat, de sécurité ou de gouvernance numérique.
